Community Lunch and Learn - Lecture on Cancer: Colorectal Cancer: What You Need to Know

Please join the UNC Cancer Network for an online, interactive lecture with Tammy Triglianos. Colorectal cancer is the fourth most common cancer in the U.S., with about 143,000 new patients diagnosed last year. Thanks to increased awareness about screenings, the death rate from colorectal cancer has been dropping for more than 20 years. Please join for this talk for an overview of colorectal cancer that contains information about prevention, screening, diagnosis and treatment, and survivorship. Community Lunch and Learn lectures are geared toward cancer patients, survivors, family, friends, and care givers/supports but anyone interested in learning more about cancer is welcome to join us. Every lecture has a question and answer section at the end so feel free to ask the presenter for clarification or more information. While these lectures are viewable online, we recommend watching them at one of our Community Lunch and Learn sites. Please contact us for more information and for assistance locating a site near you.
